Q&A

I have a tab on my website that is dedicated to those with furry friends. Before I became a Realtor and purchased my first home I was surprised how difficult it was to find pet friendly communities.
When I became a Realtor I decided that this was one area I would excel at.

Would love to meet both you and your furry family to find you that perfect property.

My father had a few units in the Tiara and has since sold them. It really depends what you have invested in these units and what you can expect as a return on your money in other areas right now. If you are able to hold the units until the new construction and new deals in the area are finalized then you may be able to profit if you are invested at the right price. There is only so much left on Singer Island. If you feel you can have the liquid money work for you in other real estate deals in the near future it may be worth getting out of these long term deals.

I sometimes get responses in minutes to the ads I put on my facebook page. Check it out; https://www.facebook.com/holyschnitz I have close to 5,000 friends worldwide (I'm a celebrity in the water-ski world). I also advertise properties internationally on my website; www.waterskidailynews.com. I'll gladly list, advertise and sell your property(s). Matter of fact, I'm writing this from Athens Greece so if it's international you want, I'm all over it! I'll be back in the good ole USA on the 24th. Please give me a call or email to get the process started!

Depending on your situation, we may be able to stop the process by buying your note from the lender and helping you get refinanced at 80% of the current market value of your property giving you 20% equity in your property. Please call or email so we can discuss this.

Hello Jd.... The answer is Yes, if you are currently homesteaded and nothing has changed as far as your permanent residency in Florida, then you can rent out your home for 4 or 5 months. If you rent your home out 6 months or less, then you also need to collect the 11% tourist tax. I would always check with The Florida Homestead Exemption guidelines if your residency status has changed. I hope that this helps a little.

Most of the significant differences lie in the buildings themselves and there are some great ones but much inventory to be sorted through before we have a handle on where prices are heading in the long term. Perhaps the most important recent development is the bulk sale of the remaining 150 unsold units at 2700 North Ocean in June. This development features twin towers and had a true condominium component as well as hotel/condo units. It will be very interesting to watch what the new owners have planned for the marketing of these units.

Looking at the supply of units in comparison to recent demand I would be betting on pricing pressure for the foreseeable future but in the long term those who buy wisely should be rewarded.
